on  an  order  from  the  provincial  auth-

A  few  days  ago  the  registrar  ot  tlie

ALLEGED    PLOT 

TO  DESTROY  PROPERTY 


OTTA\VA,.Jan.  3.— When  Parliament 
re-assembles  it  will  be  seen  that  'the 
sovernment  is  ready  to  provide  it  wlLrs 
work.     The   period     before     Chr 

served    the    purpose    of   getting     ^ 

the  Inevitable  postmortem  upotl  "tlie- 
elections  and  getting  esllmato.s  r.)r  the 
current  year  nr.ully  voted.  On  re-as- 
sembling the  ministry  will  promptly  lay 
before  the  house  the  estimates  for  1912- 
3  3,  and  on  opening  day  will  have  three 
hills  ready  to  Iniroduce,  that  resDCCting 
the  department  of  external  uffalrs,  that 
respecting  the  archives  and  th.u  re- 
specting the  status  of  private  secre- 
taries of  ministers.  Vigorous  pushing 
forward  of  business  may  be  expectea 
from  the  start. 

TraAf   wltb   West   XndlM 

The    sovernment    has    already    takea 
steps   to    implement    the    promise    con-

lor  closer  trnde  relations  ijetween  Can- 
ada and  the  liritish  West  Indies.     Ne- 
gotiation's   have    been    opened    through 
the  Imperial  authorities  with  the  West 
Indies,  and  the  expectation  is  that  tbu 
progress    now    being    made    will    clear 
ihe    way   for   more   direct   and   detailed 
conferences  between     the     rcpreaenta- 
tives  ul'  the  West  indies  and  the  gov- 
ernment of  Canada.    The  I'anadian  end 
of  the  negotiations  is  in  charge  of  the 
Hon.  G.  15.  l^^oster.     The  object  toward 
which    the   negotiators   are  working   Is 
the     establishment     of     mtitual     trade 
preference.     As   long  ago  as   189S   Can- 
ada  gave    the    West    Indies    a    preference 
ut  :i3  per  cent  and   got  nothing  in  re- 
turn.    A  special  commission  headed  by 
hora    Balfonr   of   Burleigh,    which   was 
appointed  by  the  British  Government  to 
Investigate     the      West     Indian      trade 
connections   reported    in    1010    that  the 
islands  might  be   willing  to  extend  the 
L'5   per  cent,   preference     to     Canadian 
products  and  accept  a  iovvcr  Canadian 
preference      in     return,     provided     the 
present  Canadian   system   of  letting   In 
each   year   a   small    quantity    of   foreign 
sugar  at  lower  rates  were  discontinued. 
The  Island  of  Barbadoos  some  time  ago 
passed  an   act  giving  preferential    tnat- 
raent  to  certain  Canadian  products,  Imt 
the  list  was  nut  large  enough  for  Can- 
ada,   especially   as    the    Dominion    was 
required  to  grant  a  still  more  extended 
preferencft    in    return.        It    is    under- 
sttood  that  the  principal  difficulty  to  be 
encountered   In   the  negotiations   is  the 
somewhat  complicated  condition  of  the 
sugar  trade   and    the   unwillingness    of 
the  Island  of  Jamaica  to  jeopardize  its 
commercial    relations    with    the   United 
States. 

To    Xxpodlt*    Bnalnasa 
One   of   the    plans    which    the   govern- 
jnent  la  considering  for  the  expediting 
of   public   bU8lnes.<i   i.«i   the   committing   of 
«i«tlmates  to  a  special  committee  which 
can  canvass   them  Informally, _  calli'ig   in 
civil   servants   f^r  explanations   and    in 
general  getting  the   work  done  outside 
the  time   of  the  house.     The   Courtney 
commission  In   1908  recommended  this, 
though    the    Laurler    government    tooU 
no    notice.      The    plan      seems     on    the 
verge  of  being  adopted.     I>ast  Decem- 
ber a  deputation  of  over  200  meml)ers 
of   the   British    house,    representing   all 
parties,    waited    upon    Premier   Asqulth 
and   urged   a     similar     change,     .\fter 
(lonsideration  Pr-.Tiier  ABiiilth   g«ve  a 
favorable  reply,  and  It  seems  likely  that 
the  plan  will  b^-  .adopted  In  the  British 
parliament   next   session.     The  Eurd«  n 
government   Is-  following  developments

WASHTXGTOX,    Jan.     a. 
miral    Roldey      D.     Kvan.'s, 
"I'lghting    Bob"     to    an     admiring    na 
tion,    died    suddenly    late    today    at    his 
home    in    this    cit\.      Acute    indigestion 
ended    the   career    of   one   of   the    most 
popular  officers   of   the   navy.      He   was 
ill     less     than     two     hours.       Admiral 
?:vans   ;u-ose   today   apparently   in   bet- 
ter health  and  spirits  than  be  had  en- 
joyed  In  some   time.     For  years  a  suf- 
ferer   from    old    wounds    sustained    In 
the   civil   war,  and    from   recurrent  at- 
tficks   of   rheumatic,     gout,      the    ^e0 
lighter  seemed   to   have  shaken  off  The 
burden    of    his    advancing    days.      He 
displayed  high  spirits  at  breakfast  and 
ate  s.  lunCiieon.  '^ 

In  bis  lll^rary  at  2  o'clock  the  ad- 
miral was  stricken.  His  family  sent 
instantly  f-ir  Dr.  S.  S.  .\dams,  who  on 
arrival  found  him  in  great  pain.  After 
treatment  Admiral  Evans  fell  into  a 
restless  sleep,  and  it  was  thought  the 
danger  had  passed.  Shortly  alter 
4  o'clock,  however,  he  awakened,  and 
raising  himself  with  difficulty,  an- 
no^uneed  that  he  was  choking. 
"1  can't  get  my  "breath,"  he  said. 
.\t  4:15  o'clock  he  died,  conscl"\is  to 
the  end. 

At  Ills  bedside  were  his  wife,  his 
daughter,  Mrs.  H.  I.  Sewall,  and  ffiis 
daughter-in-law.  Mrs.  Frank  T.  Evans, 
wife  of  the  admiral's  only  son,  a  lieu- 
tenant on  the  destroyer  Monahan  at 
Boston.  The  only  other  members  ot 
tils  immediate  family  who  was  not 
liresent  was  his  daughter,  Mrs.  Marsh, 
wife  of  Captain  Charles  C.  Marsh,  com- 
manding the  armored  cruiser  North 
i.'aroUna. 

Admiral  Evans  was  65  years  old.     He 
was  born  in  Floyd  count.v,  Va.,  and  as 
a  mere  boy  entered  the  naval  academy 
at   Annapolis.      Before   he   had   got   far 
with    ills    studies    the    civil    war    broke 
out,    and    throwing    his    books    to      the 
winds,  he  went  to  sea  and  was  asslgn- 
e<l   to   blockade   a  city,     it    was   In  one 
of   two   attacks   made   by   the   northern 
navy  on  the  powerful  defenses  at  Fort 
Fisher,    X.    C,    that    young    P^vans    re- 
ceived   the    wound    tbrotigh    the    thigh 
that  made  him   a  cripple  for  life.     He 
suffered    three   other    wounds,    but      as 
.■;oon    as    he    was    discharged    from    the 
hospital,    be    again    plunged    Into      the 
fighting,    and    served    until    tlie    end    of 
the  civil   war  with  great  credit. 

With  the  ending  of  the  war  there 
came  a  perlvd  of  stagnation  which 
marked  the  passing  of  the  old  wooden 
navy.  Evans  drifted  for  a  time  Into 
civil  pursuits,  although  never  relin- 
quishing his  connection  with  the  ser- 
vice. In  fact,  as  soon  as  Congress 
manifested  Us  purpose  to  meet  the  de- 
mand of  Secretaries  Chandler  and 
Whitney  for  a  reorganization  of  the 
.Vmerlcan  navy.  Evans  came  back  into 
the  service  and  was  one  of  the  leading 
experts  in  planning  the  rudiments  of 
what  is  now  the  .Xmerlciin  modern 
nav.v. 

A  few  busy  years  engaged  on  the 
construction  board  which  planned  the 
modern  battleships  and  cruisers,  and 
In  several  long  cruises  to  try  out  the 
result  of  his  own  workon  the  high 
seas,  brought  Evans  as  a  commander 
to  the  opening  of  the  gpanlsh  Ameri- 
can \v»r.  He  wanted  a  bikttlesWp,  and 
he  got  c'ne  of  the  best,  the  Iowa,  which 
represented  the  latest  product  of  the 
American  shlpyardB.

which  lumber  can  enter  the 
frre,  of  duty.  The  law  which  should 
have  preserved  the  Canadian  lumber 
merchants  froip  the  unfair  competition 
of  the  Americans  was  in  rxiflmce  all 
the  time,  but  the  late  Liberal  govern- 
ment did  not,  apparently,  see  fit  to  en- 
force it.  Hav-plly.  since  the  Conserva- 
tive government  assumed  office  It  has 
Ijcen  brought  before  the  attention  of 
tlie  department  concerned  and  the  law 
Is  now  being  rigidly  enforced  and  as 
„  result,  it  is  likely  that  during  the 
prfi^cnt  year  a  great  advance  will  be  ^ 
made  in  the  development  of  this  great 
revenue-producing  resource  of  the 
province. 

Such    is    the    statement    of    Mi-    G.    M. 
.\nnable  of  .Moose  Jaw,  one  of  the  most 
prominent     Inmher    millers    in     the    pro- 
vince.    Mr.  -Vnnabie   is  at  present  in   the 
city    on    a   social    visit    witli    his    brother. 
Mr.   J.  V^.  Annable  of  Nelson,  who  is     a 
candidate    for     the    office    of    mayor    of 
that     mainianfi     city.       In       fui'tUer    ex- 
planation   of    tlie    wliolesale    dumping   of 
liip    American   lumber   into   the   Canadian 
market  and   the   consequent   slackness   in 
tlie    production       of    Canadian       lumlierr 
Mr.   G.  M.   /Vnnable  s"ld    that   the  Amer- 
icans had   had   the   lumher   lying   up    for 
some   time  and   were   rean^y   to  part   with 
it   nt   prartlcally   any   price   and    found    it 
easy   lo  undercut   the   prices   of   the  Can- 
iidlan    l-uinher    men.      That    in    itself    was 
a    great    advantage,    but    it   also    had    the 
effect   of   establishing   a   trade    with    tlie 
cities  of  the  prairie,   a  feature   that   was 
nnicli     more     important     than     the     mere 
f>iile  at  ii  ridiculously   low   rate  of  a  .sur- 
plus   production. 

To    Beat    Oaetoma 
The    .\mericans    dirl    not    stop   at    that. 
bowever.      They    devised   A    scf>Pme    fnv 
healing    Hie    customs    with    lumher    that 
should   have  paid   an   entrance  duty   and 
ill'  that   way   greatly   enhanced    their  ad- 
vantage    over     the     Canadian     producer. 
■my.    Annable    contended      that    the. gus- 
loms     officials     had     been     "palmed"     in 
order    to   let    fbe    fake   pass,    but    he    was 
pleased    to   notice    that   since   the    Inaug- 
uration   of    the    new    government    these 
prnctlees    had    been    abandoned    as    they 
had    been    brought    before    the    attention 
of  the  authoriiies  who  had  taken  prompt 
measures    to    cope    with    the    difficulty. 
Mr.   Annable  explained  that  by  a  simple 
mechanical       device       lumber       actually 
dressed,   was  given   a   rough   edge   which 
enabled   It   to   pass   the   customs   without 
question  and  compete  at  an  unfair  price 
with    the    Canadian    product.      So    great 
an     advantage    had     this    given    several 
American    firms    that    It    had    become    a 
matter   of   sUtlatleal   history   that   more 
lumber  waa  aent  into  Ca.fttida  than  was 
conveyed   to  other  points  of  the  United 
JKiatea.      Now,    how*ver,    that    that   sort 
of  thin*  la  no  longer  possible,  Mr.  An- 
nable ia^^onf^ent  that  the  lumber  trade

VAXCOUVER,  .Tan.  3.— "The  buslnesx 
men  of  Vancouver  will  have  to  get  busy 
or  else  wake  up  some  day  and  And  out 
that  .Vlberta  has  found  another  western' 
outlet  for  Its  product.?."  Sucli  I.-5  the 
admonition  Mr.  F.  A.  Walker,  member 
of  the  legislative  assembly  of  -Mberta. 
gives  to  Vancouver's  mercliants  and 
traders.  Mr.  Walker,  who  Is  here  on  a 
brief  visit,  is  a  westerner  who  prides 
himself  justly  on  his  love  for  rrestern 
supremacy   first  and   last. 

"There  are  hundreds  of  thou.sands  o 
bUBhPls  of  grain  in  the  grMnarles  of 
Alberta  awaiting  shipment,  and  neces- 
sarily must  keep  on  awaiting  shipment 
until  the  openin.tr  of  n.^vigatio^  at  Fort 
William."  said  Mr.  Walker.  ".Vow.  Van- 
couver is  only  one  lialf  the  distance 
from  Calgary  that  Fort  William  1s,  and 
If  the  C.  P.  R.  rates  between  here  and 
Calgary  were  in  accordance  witli  the 
dl-stance  we  would  adopt  Vancouver  as 
our  port,  for  we  are  anxious  to  ship  our 
grain   every  month   out  of  the   twelve. 

"It  Is  common  talk  that  with  the 
completion  of  the  G.T.  P.  Alberta  grain 
will  go  to  Prince  Rupert  for  tranship- 
ment to  Kurope.  Now,  why  should  not 
this  grain  be  shipped  to  Vancouver 
right  now,  when  the  distance  from  Al- 
berta to  this  port  Is  no  farther  than 
it  will  be  to  Prince  Rupert?  The  whole 
nroblem  means  only  that  unless  Vancou- 
ver wakes  up  to  what  it  stands  to  lose 
before  very  long  it  will  find  that  It  Is 
practically  out  of  the  race,  so  far  as 
Alberta  grain  Is  concerned.  And  that  Is 
not   all    by   any    means. 

"If  Vancouver  is  working  hand  and 
foot  to  get  wheat  from  the  Peace  River 
country,  about  a  thousand  miles  away, 
why  does  it  not  think  of  doing  every- 
thing in  Its  power  to  bring  here  the 
grain  that  is  already  awaiting  shipment 
only  one  half  the  distance  away? 

"There  Is  already  an  extensive  rail- 
road programme  Intimated  by  Premier 
SI f ton,  and  applications  for  rharters  of 
new  railways  are  already  very  extensive, 
as  it  Is  the  object  to  connect  existing 
railways  in  Alberta  with  the  .Peace 
Tttver  country.''

hlotous  scenes  that  have  ever  been  wit- 
ness   a    during    Hull    municipal      cam- 
paigns   occurred    tonight   at   a   meeting

were  over  300  persons  present,  partisans 
of   Mayor    Archambault   and     Alderman 
Duplez,    the    two    mayoralty   candidates. 
There  was  the  utmost  confusion  In  the 
early   part  of    the   meeting.   Free  fights 
took      place      all      over    the    hall,      and 
yelling,    catcalls    and    obscene    language 
blocked   any    alliavpt    on    th*    part      of 
Mayor    Archambault     to     address     the 
meeting.      The    services    of    the      police

"THE  GIFT  CENTRE" 


Tlift  mayor'.s  .speech  opened  Ihe  mret- 
iJlK  or  t!io  eleolor.s  of  tlip  Oaklanfls  cIIn- 
trii^t  last  night.  He  conKratulateil  his 
heareiH  un  the  fact  that  the  i-'.ooke 
water  Miiostlon  •^•as  in  "slKlit  of  final 
settlement.  Jle  begged  them  not  to  be 
misled  by  any  .siibtei'fuge  at  the  last 
moment,  but  to  come  out  and  vote  for 
it  ill  H  body  and  not  for  somethinK  they 
vlidni  want  and  had  said  they  did  not 
want.  Xoi-  .HJioulil  they  "pay  any  at- 
tention to  the  nonsense  talked  about 
tlie  We.stliolnie  I..iimbei-  company  not 
l)eing  in  a  uo.*dtion  lo  carry  out  the  con- 
tract." If  that  company  did  not  get  it 
an  American  company  ^vould.  The 
next  important  auUJect  was  a  more 
thorough  invMtlgatlon  o*  the  Works 
department  to  obviate  a  recurrence  of 
tlie  state  of  tlilnffs  they  had,  had  this 
past  year.  iHe  would  restsrn  at  once  it 
n«  if^tifl  ptaoert  a^atn  In  a  «inular  posi*  - - 
Iton  by.  the  action  of  the  oouncit  The 
waste  of  time  and  energy  hM  been 
6normous.  Now  as  to  their  lUtie  locfti 
matters  (voice,  "that's  what  we  want 
to  know")  they  had  got  an  adequate 
fire  hall;  the  car.  Una  was  ready  to 
come  as  soon  as  the  paving  on  Hillside 


avenue  coulii  be  completed.  ,  koo.  TEe" 
delay  In  the.  sewer  service  was  owing 
to  protracted  negotiations  with  Oak 
Bay  with  regard  to  outfall.  An  Inves- 
tigation—Into... this  .'n^As  now  Jielng  he] 
and  he  understood  Oak  Bay  had  now 
discovered  another  outf&II;  tltla  would 
mean  further  delay.  )9«  UfiiM  th?  11^ 
ce.sslty  of  more  practical  work  oil  the 
part  of  the  executive  department.  He 
wanted  no  personalities  but  lie  wa.s  on 
th.>  council  in  tlielr  inlere.«<ts — the  city's 
interests,  not  to  he  swayed  by  otli<?r 
members  Into  negvlecting  thftc  interi&sts. 
His  friends  had  urged  him  to  run  again 
this  year  and  if  elected,  he  .would  fight 
for    their    Interests    to    the    last. 

A  volley  of  questions  directed  at  the 
mayor  dealt  chiefly  witli  tlie  ?17,000 
\iited.  for  sewerage  purposes  which  it 
\vua  alleged  had  never  reached  Oak- 
lands. 

The  mayor  owned  that  tl;!.'?  was  so, 
but  said  the  orders  had  been  given  to 
the  engineer  to  sewer  the  whole  dis- 
trict and  It  was  only  'when  all  the 
money  had  come  to  an  end  that  thfi 
council  learned  that  it  hid  not  been 
done  and  that  the  money  had  been  ex- 
pended  elsewhere. 

"It   lie  Can    Earn    li." 

A«ked  li"  he  would  vote  for  the  <-lty  paying 
tliroe  dollarii  a  day  to  it.t  workmen.  tl\« 
Mayor  said,  "Yns,  If  he  can  earn  It,"  (Cries 
of  '"Can  he  live  on  It?"  and  oheersV.  He 
had  paid  a.  man  himself  three  dollani  for 
an  elpfht-hoijr  day  for  the  paot  year  and 
upuld  pay  him  four  and  five  dollars  If  he 
could    earn     It. 

Mr.  .r.  U  ncckwlth  believed  that  his  four 
years  c.'cperlence  on  the  city  council  wax  a 
Rood  preparation  for  the  office  of  Mayor, 
rrlclinn  had,  no  doubt.  Impeded  the  pro- 
Kress  of  the  councira  work  and  bad  done 
the  ell}-  no  good  In  the  eyes  of  the  out- 
Flde  world.  Sewerage  was  a  most  Important 
question:  Health  came  flrst  anif  .wiihoul

ble. <ChRers>.  They  bad  not,  be  nat.  pre- 
pared to  admit,  had  as  much  altoniion  ptild 
to  this  district  as  they  had  a  right  to.  lie 
did  not  consider  the  mayor's  excus»>  as  to 
the  enjrlnecr  being  responsible  worth  tak- 
ing. He  ou(tht  to  have  known  what  was 
Rolng  on.  The  responslljilliy  siill  resf^d  on 
lilm  and  the  council.  It  was  the  niavor 
himself  who  had  moved  to  delegate  author- 
ity lo  the  engineer  but  be  could  not  gel 
rid  of  his  responsihlHty  In  that  way,  (Hear

pleasure  of  the  Mineral  Rubber  Co.  befor*-

Let  them  go  abend  and  pay  no  attention

say.  and  that  was  that  this  was  no  tlmo

Elvans'  ship  took  a  notable  part  in 
the  oO-nille  running  fight  that  foUuw- 
etl.  For  his  gallantry  in  tills  action  he 
received  the  thanks  of  congress  anil 
wHK  prt)inot<»d. 

As  a  full-fledged  admiral,  Kvansfcvsas

ganizer  and    commander. 

Hy  the  time  he  bac>  reached  San 
i'rancisco  the,  strain  had  become  so 
f-pvere  that  he  was  unable  to  leave  his 
bed,  and  It  was  necessary  to  relieve  hini 
from  the  command  at  Ihs^t  place.  Ac- 
tl\e  dut\'  terminated  for  Admiral 
Bvans  at  that  point.  It  is  true  that 
he  did  not  go  on  the  retired  list  until 
n  few  iTiotiths  afterward,  but  never 
again  was  he  called  upon  to  direct  the 
mnvf.ment  of'  Si  ship  or  a  fleet.  He  re- 
tired to  his  quaint  old  f.ishloned  home 
here,  and.  surrounded  by  his  family, 
.•spent  in  happiness  the  few  rctn;iining 
>ears  of  hi.s   life.

Inown  figure  tbroiigliovit  tlie  i)rovlnce. 
He  .speak.s  in  teim.s  of  glowing  enthiis-

mines  in  the  neighboring  country  are 
turning  out  much  better  tli.in  was  orig- 
inally expei  ted.  Since  the  discoveries 
of  .Mr.  l'"rencb  in  regard  to  the  platinum 
and  other  metals  a  great  iiunibeT-  of 
claims  bad  been  staked  and  results  were 
reported  all  along  the  llui'  to  lie  biRlil>' 
piofltahle,  although  at  the  present  lime 
It  was  perhaps  too  early  to  set  any  def- 
ii'ite  value  upon  llu'  permanent  produc- 
tion   of    the    mines.

I'Jverj'one  whs  confident,  however, 
that  the  mines  would  make  good,  and 
Hie  manner  in  wliieb  claims  were  lieing 
slaked  Was  InsplrinK.  The  specimens 
Oi  platinum  that  had  been  extracted  had 
piove<l  on  examination  to  be  of  a  high

The  poultry  show,  wJilch  opened  yes-

I-uUllUnK  anticipatlona.  Both  in  num- 
bers and  in  th.-  quality  ot  birds  shown 
it  is  an  advance  on  previous  years  and 
in  some  classes  there  Is  much  inor.- 
to  be  said.  The  Judge.  Mr.  Trew,  says 
in  regard  to  the  barred  rock  in  cooy 
.No.  -Ji  that  it  ts  the  finest  bird  he  has 
ever  seen.  This  rooster  was  bred  by 
and  is  the  property  of  Mcssr.s,  Blaclt- 
siock   Bros.,    of   Vancouver.      His    mark-

tli«  Sebright  (which  lays  an  egg  equia 
In  slie  to-  that  of  the  Leghorn)  would 
be  found  to  have  a  claim  to  be  Includ- 
ed in  the  class  of  commercially  prof- 
itable birds.  The  "Silkies."  queer  lit- 
tle white  bantams  with  each  feather

the  only  ppecimons  <>{  their  race  in  the 
province.  ^ 

Tlip  speckled  i?us.iox  .should  be  close- 
ly studied  in  tlie  pens,  .Nos.  358  and  ;159. 
Their  length  and  depth  of  frame  and 
the  amount  of  meat  they  carry  are  re- 
markable; they  resemble  ia~j*fianV  re-

Oerman  Antlers. 
Tlie  German  Antlers  are  another  nov- 
elty;      the      comb    when    wpII    devplopcti 
resembles    a    palmnted    antler    with    Ave 
points.      Only    one    pen  .  of    Dorkings    is 
on   e^ihibltlon,    that    "best    table    fowl    in 
the  world,"  as   one  breeder  called  them. 
The      Silver    Spangled    Hnmhurgs    ex- 
hibited by  Mr.  J.  G.  Whltcomb  of  I>ady- 
smith    show    quality    that    can    rarely    if 
ever    been     excelled.       The     speckling    is 
uniform    and     each     feather    shows  '  the 
black      thumb    mark    at    Its    extremity, 
whlcli   it    Is   the  aim   of   breeders    to    gel. 
The       Golden    Laced     Wyanv-iOttcs     are 
often    called    the    most   beautiful    of    the 
poultry    tribe,    witli    their    bronze   feath- 
ers     edged      with      black.      The    'White 
Wyanrtottes  are  the  large.«!t  class  in   the 
show  and  by  far  the  finest   ever  shown 
here. 

Pigeons,  like  bantamf,  aro  not  so  nu- 
nporous  thi^i  year.  Among  t'lc  rahtiits 
the  Flemish  Giant  predominates,  thougli 
the  Bclgion  Hares,  Lop  lOars  an<3  the 
common  rabbit  are  represented.  This 
rodent,  it  is  a' relief  to  hear  cannot  do 
well  on  the  Island;  he  Is  the  victim 
of  consumption,  presumably  owing  to 
tlie  impossibility  of  finding  a  dry  bur- 
row, which  is  all  the  better  for  the 
future   oC    the   timber.

BABXIiT    lUSBBrBESENXEZ) 


Mr.  John  L.  Bcckwlth's  candid-iture 
for  ihe  Mayoralty  liri.s  been  basely  rnis- 
rfpreseni^fl  in  n  quarter  from  which 
lothlng  clSfV  but  misrepresentation  of 
£  public  rriiiii  uttii  ever  be  expected.  Mr. 
Beckwith'.s  crime  in  the  eyes  of  his  cal- 
umlnator  Is  that  he  is  a  Conserxatlve  in 
federal  and  provincial  politics.  If  this 
is  ft  Clinic,  .Mr.  Beckwlth  has  many  peo- 
I'le  in  ilie  same  boat  with  him,  too 
many  people,  to  suit  the  ideas  of  his 
as.sallant.  It  is  alleged  that  Mr.  Bf ck- 
with  has  been  broutrht  into  the  field  by 
])eople  who  wish  to  see  municipal  r*l- 
ilks  run  uii  p;ivt.%  lines.  This  explains, 
Wo  Huppo.se,  why  Jlr.  M.  .\.  .\Innn,  om' 
of  the  most  pronounced  Liberals  in  ilie 
city,  was  chairman  of  Mr.  Bcckwlth's 
organization  meeting,  and  why  so  many 
of  the  most  prominent  I.iiberals  in  the 
city  arc  active  In  Ills  support.  In  tli- 
coiir:;e  of  this  infamous  attack  itpon  a 
uni-thy  citizen,  the  allegation  is  made 
tliiit  a  well-known  Conservative  mem- 
h'li-  uf  the  Legislature  said,  "Wc  niiisL 
elect  Beckwith  because  we  can  handle 
him,"'  a  stitement  which  for  barefaced 
falsahood,  v.-annot  be  surpassed  in  the 
annals   of  mDTiicipul   politics. 

The  truth  is  that  the  policy  of  des- 
peration Is  being  pursued  by  a.  small 
mill  utttri\-  discredited  section  of  tlic 
Liberal  party,  a  section  which  is  so 
liiinded  by  Us  own  hatred  and  malice 
that  It  can  see  oni.v  fvil  in  uiiatcver 
illiectlon  it  looks,  a  section  which  the 
decent  Liberals  will  consign  to  oblivion 
on  the  fir.<«t  occasion  that  offers.  AVo 
do  not  helleve  this  sort  of  opposition  will 
hurt  Mr.  Beiicwilli's  chances  even  in 
an  infinitesimal  degree.  On  the  con- 
li'hrx'.  wo  arc  ('"nfldrnt  lliat  it  \\ill 
cDUse  many  voters  to  rally  to  his  sup- 
poii.  I.,ibeiHls  who  liave  any  regard 
for  the  future  of  theii-  jiarly  or  any 
respect  for  themselves  as  citizens  win 
icltise  to  follow  H  lead  tliat  ^Alll  ident- 
l!y  them  with  liie  candidature  <if  the 
present  incumbent  of  the  Ma>oralt>-. 
The  venomous  attack  on  Mr.  Beckwlth 
will  recoil  upon  thei  men  who  made  It 
end  the  candidate  nn  whoso  helialf  it 
has  been  made.  It  is  all  very  well  to 
speak  well  of  .Mr.  Beckwitli  personally. 
His  HSMHilnnl  had  riiM  tiit-  iiMidihuud  ^u 
d(>  otherwise.  Bur  the  attack  is  a  per- 
Bcnal  one  all  the  same;  It  is  an  attack 
inspired  by  disappointed  malice,  and 
oie  of  a  kind  that  has  brouchf  disaster 
after  disaster  upon  the  heads  of  those 
directly  responsible   for  it 


Some  confusion  exists  in  the  public 
mind  as  to  titles  and  how  and  .  wiiy 
they  are  granted.  This  is  accentuated 
by  the-  absurd  telegrams  sent  out  by 
correspondents.  For  example, :  wot ■■wer« 
told  not  very  long  ago  that  Mr.  Borden 
would  be  Knighted  by  order  of  the  King 
l»«tw<mally.  aad  ths  t«muak  for  tluit  «■• 
isapttonol  honor  was  stated,  Ttrft  4o  lost 
recall  whether  or  not  we  pointed  out 
the  abflurdlty  of  such  a  atatement  at, 
th^  time,  but  anyone  ought  to  know 
that  while  the  Sovereign  la  nbe  fQvn- 
tain  of  honor,"  he  exerdsea  his  prerog- 
atlTfl  on  the  ><Iy1w  9t  hln  mt^lft^fff,  re» 


count  with  $5,000  and  the  other  man's 
bank  to  credit  his  account  with  the 
same  amount.  Nest  morning  the  rep- 
resentatives of  the  two  banks  meet  at 
the  clearing  liousc  and  the  bank  which 
holds  your  cheque  presents  it  to  the  rep- 
resentative of  the  bank  on  wi..ch  It  Is 
drawn,  and  the  lai-ecr  offsets  it  by 
other  people's  cheques  drawn  on  your 
bank.  No  money  changes  hands  except 
to  meet  the  balance  tliat  one  bank  may 
owe  another  on  the  (lay's  settlement. 
Thus  you  see  that  banking  business  is 
only    mobilized    credit.

the  (Consummation  of  Confederation, 
when  Sir  Charles  TUpper,  another  Prime

tJreat  Britain  and  France  have  hlt'i-

Clean,  healtiiy  nnd  commodious 
schools  arc  among  the  greatest  assets 
that  a  city  can  possess.  For  this  rea- 
son It  seems  essential  that  the  fur- 
ther sum  of  money  required  for  the 
erection  of  a  new  high  school  should 
be  provided.  Some  doubt  seems  to  exist 
In  the  minds  of  a  number  of  people 
as  to  why  the  extra  money  shoujd  b« 
required.  The  explanation  is  simple. 
When  tenders  for  construction  Wer«  in- 
vited on  the  plans  drawn  up  Tor  the 
new  structure  the  lowest  was  greMtly 
in  excess  of  the  amount  set  aside  for

BANKS. 

Banks  are  one  of  i;it>  most  wonder- 
ful products  of  modern  civilization. 
I'ew  people  think  enough  about  tiiem 
to  rcali'/.r  the  pari  tliey  play  on  busi- 
ness; but  let  any  one  suppose  that 
business  tninsactioiis  were  all  carried 
on  with  coin,  as  a  certiiiii  fienient  in 
the  United  Stales  used  to  hold  a  few- 
years  ago,  and  he  will  see  hr)\v  abso- 
lutely necessary  ijanks  arc.  To  the 
average  individual  a  bank  Is  a  place 
wiiere  you  put  money  for  safe  keep- 
ing and  from  wiiich  yon  get  money  on 
.your  own  or  some  one  else's  cheque;  but 
this  Is  the  smallest  part  of  the  bank- 
ing business.  Not  long  ago  the  papers 
told  of  a  certain  railway  president 
coming  to  Canada  with  a  valise  full 
of  monf%'.  Probably  a  good  many  peo- 
i)ln  tiiouKhl  It  was  literailv  true  that 
he  did  so.  or  tliat,  if  he  did  not  have 
the  mone>',  ho  had  something  repre- 
senting It.  .\s  a  matter  of  fact  he 
doubtless,  hod  neUher.  He  had  floated 
a  large  loan,  but  he  never  saw  a  dol- 
lar of  the  monex-,  nnd  In  point  of  fact 
lie  did  not  borrow  "money"  at  all.  .\ll 
he  got  In  exchange  for  his  securities 
was  an  entry  in  the  books  of  some 
financial  house,  and  If  that  financial 
house  had  been  asked  to  send  out  the 
cash  to  Canada,  It  probably  could  not 
have  done  so.  It  might  have  been  able 
to  do  so  after  a  good  deal  of  trouble, 
but  In  such  a  case  no  one  would  e>«r 
lend  the  railway  man  anything  more. 
Coming  down  from  transactions  in- 
volving millions,  let  us  take  one  In- 
volving tiiousands.  Fancy  the  Incon- 
venience It  would  be  If  you  had  lo 
cprry  four  or  rtve  thousand  dollars  with 
you  when  you  wanted  to  buy  a  piece 
of  land.  In  some  cases  you  might  take 
bank  notes,  but  these  are  not  money. 
In  the  majority  of  csaos  you  would 
give  your  cheque.     Just  folow  out  sueh

The  London  Dally  Chronicie  says 
"if  British  foreign  policy  were  suided 
by  public  opinion,  an  .\nglo-German 
understanding  would  be  a  possibility  of 
the  early  future."  Mr.  W.  T.  Stead  says 
that  such  an  understanding  would  be 
easily  arrived  at  if  it  were  not  for  a 
coterie  surrounding  the  Foreign  Of- 
fice which  can  see  nothing  good  in 
Germany. 


Tiiere  is  no  sign  of  a  let  up  in  the 
flowing  tide.  In  fact  11  would  seem  to 
be  flowing  stronger  than  ever.  Prince 
Kdward  Island  has  returned  a  practi- 
cally solid  conservatlvp  representation 
lo  the  provincial  house.  .Vccording  lo 
the  telegraphic  dispatches,  one  seat  Is 
In  doubt,  but  even  that  may  yet  gn 
conservative.  It  looks  as  if  British  Co- 
liimlila's   proud    record    had    been    beaten. 


A  foretsste  of  the  electioneering  tac- 
tics which  ihc  present  mayor  Intends 
to  employ  during  the  municipal  cam- 
paign WHS  forthcoming  at  last  even- 
ings .meeting  at  Oaklands.  He  de- 
sc-i-n'ic'i  I"  pi^rowiiMiilies  ih  an  effr'l'l  to 
gain  ills  point.  If  we  read  the  sign."' 
of  the  times  correctl,\-.  a  stage  In  the 
progress  of  tlie  city  i*ss  been  reached 
when  '  Victoria  (^ants  a  man  a*  chief 
ci\lc  magistrate  who  l.'s  too  much  of  a 
man  to  employ  such  methods  of  elec- 
tioneering. 

The  statement  is  made  that  Egypt 
has  ann'^xed  part  of  Tripoli.  We  sup- 
pose that  the  boundaries  of  the  two 
countries  are  not  \  ery  well  deHned. 
The  statement  is  also  made  that  the 
annexed  region  contains  the  only  good 
harbor  on  the  coast.  This  lends  color 
to  the  statement.  The  Sultan  has  not 
yet  relinquished  his  rule  over  Tripoli, 
and  as  he  Is  also  nominally  ruler  over 
Kgypi,  he  may  properly  claim  to  have 
the  right  lo  vary  the  boundary  between 
two  parts  of  his  reaim  In  any  way  he 
thinks  nt.  Italy's  position  In  western 
Tripoli  Is  not  so  secure  that  she  can 
undertake  to  say  what  the  Sultan  shall 
do  with  the  eastern  portion.  .The  faet

Board'B  Portrait  Oallery— -The  por- 
trait Kulbry  ut  the  Board  of  Trade 
rooms  w«.-i  appreciably  augmented 
yesterday  by  the  arrival  of  four  life- 
size  photographs  of  the  following  past 
presidents:  Mr.  W.  T.  Oliver.  Mr.  J. 
A.  Mara,  His  Honor  the  L,ieutenant- 
(lovornor  T.  W.  Patcrson  and  Mr.  F.  A. 
I'iulino.  The  portrait  of  Mr.  Oliver 
was  executed  by  Sarony.  the  famous 
New  A'ork  .irtist,  while  Savannah,  of 
Victoria,  prepared  the  other  eniargo- 
ment-s.  All  .  are  considered  excellent

merly manager  of  the  local  bmnch  of 
the  bank  of  B.  N.  A.,  is  now  located

An  Indian  Wlfa's  'Status — Tho  m.^ii- 
ing  week  or  ten  da.V8  will  witness  the 
eviction  from  the  Songhees  reserve  of 
the  past  of  Tliomas  .Tames,  who  still 
holds  the  fort  of  the  la.Ht  of  the  old- 
tlmors  rctainlns  Intar^sL  in  that  rrr- 
c.laimed  territory  now  becoming  n  part 
of  provincial  crown  lands  through  re- 
linquishment of  the  old-time  Indian  re- 
servation across  the  haibor.  The  case 
of  Tom  .lames  offers  son-.f  uniguft 
points  of  adjustment  in  federal  law  as 
applied  to  lands  under  the  jurisdiction 
of  the  Dominion  autborltiej*,  the  sqimt- 
tcr  having  married  Into  the  Songhees 
tribe,  although  he  himself  Is  a  Cowlch- 
an.  According  to  tribnl  law,  his  wife 
became  with  him  a  Cowlrhnn  Indian. 
It  l8  maintained  by  Tom  .lames,  acting 
under  legal  advice,  that  he  Is  entitled  to 
a  share  In  the  partition  of  the  Songliees 
reserve,  and  for  this  reason  he  has 
maintained  his  right  by  occupancy.  The 
Indian  department,  standing  upon  the 
ancient  tribal  rule  that  nn  Indian  mar- 
rying Into  another  tribe  carries  with 
him  his  wife's  tribal  rights,  maintains 
the  rule  that  the  rights  pass  to  the  hus- 
bnnd'R  Irlbw,  and  hold  that  Tom  James 
and  his  wife  are  now  Cowichans,  and 
therefore  not  entitled  to  any  rights  un- 
der the  Sonirhees  reserve  distribution. 
Acttn*  under  legal  advice,  Tom  J'ames 
claims  a  portion  of  the  distributed  area 
of  the  old  reserve,  and  the  matter  of 
rlfht  win  now  be  adjudicated  by  the 
courii  of  law.  Thia  Is  the.  laat  claim

MTION 
AND  PAIN 


Cured  by  Lydia  E.  Piokham's 
Vegetable  Compound. 

Creston,  Iowa.—"  I  was  troubled  for 
a  long  tiijtf  with  jnfljuugiation,  pHins 


to  take  Ih  order  to  avoid  injuring  liie 
foolish  wayfarer.  .  In  the  first,  place, 
even  in  these  da>'s  of  hum'f  tb<sre  Is 
very  ipeldom  Indeed  my  neert:«f  rtm- 


ishly  taken,  nothing  is  so  d&ngeroua'as 

indecision.  TO  keep  right  on  in  ustially 
the  best  way.  There  are  reckless  driv- 
er.-?, but  they  are  few.  On  the  other 
hand  .there  are  many  careless  and  fool- 
hardy pedestrians.  The  time  hns  come 
when  more  caution  is  necessary,  es- 
pecially where  children  are  concerned. 
It  is  not  hard  to  teach  little  folUs  to  be 
careful,  and  older  boys  and  girls  shmiM 
he  compelled  to  observe  necessary 
caution. 

The  Juvenile  Court. 
.\n  attempt  to  depose  JtKlge  Ijindsay 
from  his  position  has  been  defeated. 
Women  all  over  the  continent  tviU  be 
^laii  iu  hear  this.  The  movement  with 
whiih  .Jiidsre  l.,indsa\'.s  name  has  be- 
come idenliiied  is  one  of  the  jrreate.sl 
reforms  of  thi.s  ceutur.v.  To  treat  Ijo.vjj 
and  girls  who  have  broken  the  law. 
nut  as  criminals  to  be  exposed  and 
punished,  hut  as  children  to  be  reform- 
<^cl  by  kind  and  wise  discipline,  is  :» 
great  advatice  in  civilization.  AVlicro- 
CA'cr  the  experiment  has  been  tried,  the 
results  have  been  good.  The  judges 
in  most  ca.<?es  have  been  lover.s  of  chil- 
dren and  have  looked  upon  their  work 
.Ks  of  preat  importance.  In  our  own 
eit\-,  as  in  Vancoii\-er,  the  police  mag- 
istrate has  the  ndditionai  duty  of  pn-- 
.^ildlnEj  over  the  children's  court.  It  is. 
perhaps,  too  soon  to  Judge  of  the  effects 
of  the  plan  in  Victoria,  but  it  .seems  to 
have  worked  very  well.  Children  ace 
not  brought  In  any  way  Into  oontact 
with  older  criiulnals.  .V  public  trial 
does  not  make  them  heroes  in  the  eyes 
of  ttad  children  or  mart\  rs  in  those  of 
foolish    relatives.      In      the      detention

that  the  truant  officer,  the  Juvenile?

for  them  in  every"  oiH-  where  there  are 
weak  and  erring  paront.s.  By  caring 
for  boy.s  and  girl.<i  who  are  neglected  or 
whoso  parents  cannot  protect  them 
from  the  temptations  which  every  city 
offers,  the  juvenile  court  does  excel-

The    Chlldren'a    City. 

Dh  llie  citizon.s  of  Victoria  sufficiently 
realize  the  Importance  of  attracting  to 
It  children?  There  Is  not  a  city  on  tlio 
continent,  perhaps  there  are  few  In  the 
world,  where  children  should.  If  proper;^ 
ly  cared  for,  Rrow  up  so  good,  so 
healthy  and  .so  happy  «„  In  Vicloriii. 
One  hn.s  only  to  reail  the  nowspaper.s 
and  the  lllu.strationa  in  the  inafrazlne.M 
to  see  iliat  in  all  large  cities  there  i«

gry little  one  l.s  .seldom  or  never  seen. 
Our  MtreetK  are  wide,  hihI  \p  the  resi- 
dential parts  of  the  city  each  house  has 
room  around  It  for  the  little  ones  to 
play  In.  Older  boys  and  girls  can  find 
.Mpaee  In  Die  parks  and  open  spaces  for

not amuse  tliem.selves  in  the  open  nlr. 
All  round  Me.q  the  water,  and  tile  beacli- 
ea  are  favorite  places  of  resort  In 
Mprlng  and  summer.  The  result  la  eas- 
ily Kjeen,  and  strangers  never  fall  to 
admire  the  children  as  they  assemble 
at  school  in  the  morning  nr  fill  the 
Blreots  on  a  holiday  on  their  way  to 
.'omc  excursion.  It  Is  w'll  that  Victo- 
rians should  realize  that  children  have 
here  every  natural  advantage  and  very 
few  of  the  disadvantages  Inseparable 
from  city  life.  There  are,  loo,  gooil 
schools  where  boys  and  glrls'niay  learn 
how  to  grow  up  to  be  useful  and  Intel- 
ligent citizens.  Our  school  accommoda- 
tion Is,  however,  overtaxed.  The  High 
school  t«  quite  inadequate  to  the  re- 
tjulrpments  of  a  city  of  the  size  at  Vic- 
toria, and  the  other  nchool  houses  are 
filled.  It  Is  good  policy  for  Victoria  to 
make  her  educational  advantages  the

Drawing  of  Island  League 
Schedule  Again  Delayed  to 

\  Allow  Ladysmitli  to  Form  an 
Up-lsland  Section 


If  the  soccer  football   enthusiasts  of 
l^adysmith  are  successful,  thf  Amateur 
Island   football   leag-ue   wHj    resolve   it- 
self Into  a  Northern  and  .Southern  sec- 
tion;   the    llnal    pla>>off    taking    place 
between   the   two   successful   teams  for 
the    island    champUmship.      Such      waa 
tho  way  Mr.  A.  Smitli,  secretary  of  the 
league  and  also  secretary  of  the  B.  C. 
jv_  A.  v.,  who  ret"vni;d  f rnni  Xadysmith 
last   evening   where   he   took   steps     to 
form   a  branch   of   the  amateur  UQlon 
there,  presented  the  case,  last  evening 
at   the   regular    meeting  .of 'the  league 
and  that  was  the  way  it*.;was  accepteiS 
l)y  the  delegates.    But  the  enterprising 
Ladysmith   amateurs  will   be  glyen   a 
vs  eek  to  carry  forth  t)l«lr;;^ro]ect,  which 
will  inelude  getting  o  t*W»  ftem  Dun- 
can,  Nanaimo,  NorthfleW  and  AlbemJ. 
The    up-islanders    niuat   "be    heard 
from  detlnitely  according  to  a  motion 
in  last  evening's  meeting,  at  the  nejtt 
meeting,    Friday,    January    12,    and-if-j— 
not  the  team  will  be  Ignored.     Two  of 
the   delegates   were   in  favor  of  draw- 
ing .up    the   schedule    excluding   Lady- 
smith  for  the  opening  day   and  if  not 
ready   to   enter  then,   the  league  eould 
be  carried   on.   or  if  tliey  entered,  the 
Hcbfidulft  could  be  arranged  according- 
ly.     But    that    motion    was    lost    when 
put    to    a    vote.       Mr.    Dakers,    North 
Ward   representative     proceeded      then 
with  a  second  resolution   to  the  effect 
that   the    drawing   of   the   .schedule     be 
postponed  for  one  week  and  that  a  de- 
finite  answer    be   asked    of    Ladysmith 
by    the    next   meeting.       This     carried 
unanimously. 

.'Should  Ladysmith  fail  in  its  efforts 
in  forming  a  secondary  league  up- 
island,  their  entrance  will  be  accepted 
provided  that  !ney  are  willin^e  to  go 
to  the  pxpens*^  of  sending  a  team  to 
this  city  six  'fimes  during  the  season, 
to  the  single  visit,  of  each  local  team. 
Home  and  home  games  will  be  the 
order  of  the  schedule. 

.\Ir..:J-.  Sail  was  present  at  the  .ses- 
sion in  behalf  of  the  Eaquiraalt-Navy 
team,  whicfv  he  f6;und  It  nec'e'.ssary  to 
withdraw  owing  to  the  fact  that  he 
was  not  aware  that  the  Garrison  and 
North  Wards  were  entering  a  team 
when  the  idea  first  struck  him.  upon 
whom  he  had  depended  for  players. 
However,  he'  very  klrcily  allowed  his 
entrance  fee  to  remain  with  the  league 
to  defi-ay  any  expenses  that  ,  might., 
arise  bifore  the  end  of  the  year. 

The  teams  entered  in  the  league  to 
date  are— Garrison,  North  Ward.  Vic- 
toria West,  Sons  of  p:ngland,  Forest- 
ers, James  Bay  with  the  possibility  of 
I.^dysmith. 

.Mr.  A.  Smith  has  appointed  Mr.  A. 
Morrison  as  consul  of  a  new  branch  of 
the  amateur  union  which  has  been  es- 
tablished at  the  Island  port.  Mr.  Mor- 
rison will  probably  form  a  bonrd  wblch 
will  compose  a  branch  of  the  union  to 
exercise  their  power  over  amateur 
sport  in  the  districts  in  which  it  is 
proposed  to  enter  soccer  teams  in  the 
Island  league.

Extent  of  $650  .  '^ 


The  PvUgby  footuail  games  held  in 
this  province  "during  Christinas  week 
were  not  a  success  from  a  financial 
standpoint  by  any  means.  The  Victoria 
Rugby  Union  went  behind  ?250,  while 
In  Vancouver  the  club  there  dropped 
$ti50.  What  was  the  cause  of  the  laclc 
of  interest  in  this  city  it  is  hard  to  tell. 
The  games  could  not  have  been  better, 
the  weather  for  the  first  and  second 
games  was  glorlou.s  and  while  -re 
mav  have  been  cause  for  a  complaint 
in  the  final  match  New  Year's  day,  the 
citizens  of  the  city  should  liave  sup- 
ported the  Pacific  coast  champions  in 
e   better    manner. 

Tho  guarantee  made  by  the  local 
club,  as  well  as  the  Vancouver  organi- 
zation, to  the  visiting  Califo-'iiians,  was 
$1800.  The  two  remaining  games  in 
the  provincial  series  should  pull  the 
respective  clubs  even  on  the  season  at 
least.  The  present  B.  C.  league  situa- 
tion should  also.^help  In  arousing  inter- 
est. In  order  to  hold  the  Pacific  coast 
championship  Victoria  must  win  the 
two  remaining  games  fro  mthc  mainland 
team. 

Tho  final  McKecbnie  cup  gamer,  will 
be  finished  off  now  as  soon  as  possible. 
The  Victoria  Union,  as  v/ell  as  the  Van- 
couver Union,  want  me  fir.st  game 
played  in  Vancouver  this  month,  pos- 
sibly .Tanuary  27  or  maybe  earlier  will 
be  selected.  As  both  teams  are  now  at

footimil  will  be  forthcoming.  The  orig- 
inal scliedulc  calls  for  the  first  game 
on   February    10.

."SSo  yards  end  the  .fSbampionship  of  the

His  time  was  2  hours  32  minutes

won  tlie  race  -Vast  year  in  the 'record

EDMONTON.  Alta.,  Jan.  3.— It  took 
only  three  slashing  rounds  of  a 
scheduled  15-round  bout  for  Bayley, 
the  Victoria  bo.xor,  to  beat  Lauder,  who 
until  last  night  itad  the  lightwelglit 
championshiii  of  \Ve,stern  Canada. 
I^auder  was  sent  to  the  mat  three 
times  before  being  declared  beaten  by 
Referee- Hearn.  The  tliird  •ime  he 
went  down  his  manager  and  seconds 
threw  water  on  him,  but  he  was  of- 
ficially  dccNired   out   by   the   referee. 

Right  from  the  start  Bayley  went 
after  hi.-s  clever  opiioncnt,  and  although 
the  -Medicine  Hat  man  iirought  into 
play  all  his  well  Vcnown  foot  work,  and 
dodging  tactics,  the  Victmia  conior 
♦,>»is  on  him  all  the  time,  lainlin;;  rights 
and  lefts. 

The  bout  branded  Bayley  as  a  com- 
mg  champion.  In  a  few  year.s  he  will 
be  able  to  stand  up  to  any  of  tlie  top 
notchers.  He  carried  his  bout  through 
In  a  masterly  manner,  not  only  out- 
hitting  Lauder,  but  out-gtiesslng  bJm 
Lauder's  years  of  ring  experience  ap- 
peared usolcs,s  against  Eayley's  ag- 
gressiveness. The  crowd  of  1,400  iioo- 
ple  who  .saw  the  expedition  were  disap- 
pointed that  it  did  not  go  longer,  but 
had  ten  minutes  of  the  fastest  bo.xlng 
that  was  ever  pulled  off  in  I'^dmontoii. 

The  Hrst  round  was  entirely  Bayle^'.s. 
He  made  Lauder  light  all  the  time. 
The  second  round  was  even,  and  in  tho 
third  Bayiey  had  his  man  dazed  in  the 
first  few  seconds.

JOHNSON  TO  MEET 

McVEY  AND  FLYNN 

CHICAGO.  .Tan.  3.— "I'll  fight  Sam 
McVey  in  Paris  on  the  night  of  the 
Grand  Prix.  1  think  July  3,  and  X'U 
Hght  Klynn  some  time  before  that, 
either  in  New  York  or  Nevada."  Cham- 
pion .lack  .lohnson  tonight  thus  out- 
lined the  pugilistic  situation  regarding 
the     heavyweight     ch»mplonahip. 

•'There  has  been  so  much  stuff  pub- 
iisliec^^t  IH  hard  to  tell  where  I  am," 
contlruie3*s=i  Johnson,  "and  I  want  lo 
straighten  it  up.  Every  manager  ot  a 
fighter  who,  by  the  widest  stretch  or 
Imagination  might  be  called  a  heavy- 
weight, has  been  seeking  publicity  for 
his    man    by   a    lot   of    talk. 

'liOilllMOn       HUE5        IWo       iiltttCliew       CCmlnn, 

the    two    I   named  and    no   more.      When 
there  are    more.    I'll    knnounce    them." 

The  champion  said  the  McVey  arti- 
cles would  be  signed  in  legal  form  to- 
m.orrow  and  that^the  Flynn  contract  will 
be    signed    soon    after. 


Not   Going   Next   Year. 

BOSTON,  Jan.  .1. — Tennis  players 
here  commenting  on  the  defeat  of  the 
American  team  In  New  Zealand  ex- 
press the  opinion  that  another  similar 
expedition  to  the  Antipodes  hardly  will 
be   attempted   for  at   least   two   years. 

The  defeat  of  both  Wright  and  I-iar- 
ne<l.  the  latter  by  Heath,  a  compara- 
lively  new  player,  settled  the  fate  of 
the  Clip  for  this  challenge,  and  there 
was  little  surprise  expressed  today 
when  it  was  learned  that  McT.iOUKhlln, 
the  Cailfornlfln.  .inrl  AVright,  the  Bos- 
tonlan,    were   defeated   In    the   doubles. 

The  cup  was  originally  offered  by 
Dwight  Davis  in  St.  Louis  In  iS9'.t  and 
.^•as  successfully  defended  by  Ameri- 
cans until  1903  when  the  Doherty 
brothers    carried    It    to    Kngland. 


AT  HALF  TIME 

John  J.  McGraw,  manager  of  tlic  New 
York  National  league  team,  which  is 
juEt  back  from  Us  successful  Invasion 
of  Cuba,  has  no  extravagant  opinion  of 
the  Cuban  ball  player.  He  la  a  dull 
thinker,  says  McOraw.  but  a  fast  run- 
ner. "These  Cubans  arc  only  fair  ball 
players,"  Is  the  way  McClraw  put's  it. 
"They  arc  n-s  faat  an  lightning  on  the 
IxMjea  and  they  can  throw  to  beat  the 
band.  They  hava  picked  up  all  tho 
knacks  of  fielding,  but  they  cannot  bat. 
Not  only  that,  but  they  do  .rtot  plaj- 
what  we  call  brainy  baaeball.  Little 
attention  is  fflvon  to  brain  work  on  the 
diamond." 

McOraw  may  be  ripht.  but  that  doesn't 
excuaa  hia  team  from  being  bumped  ao 
bediy  down  there  in  Cuba.  It  iooka 
from  a  tlanoe  at  the  aeorea'  th»t  thay 
don't  need  t«  hit.  the  way  thay  wla.

to  guard  the  interests  of  the  Citizens 
as  faithfully  as  I  would  my  own.  Upon 
matters  relatln|r  to  the  moraf  welfai'e 
of   the  oommunHv   I  ask   to  be   judged 

clearly  -  understodd  that  I  shaU  Btrivo 
to  protect  those  Who  arc  doing  a  law- 
ful business  and  extend  to  them  every 
right  and  privilege  to  which  tUcy  are 
1  ntltled,  but  I  slmll.  If  elected,  insist 
upon  enforcing  all  laws  that  are  made 
for  clean  .  civic  government,  jvithoui 
fear  or  favor,  giving  Justice  to  all  ynd 
special    privileges    to  none. 

I  shall.  If  elected,  use  my  utmost  en- 
deavor to  see  that  all  oorporatibns 
owning  and  operating  public  utilities 
live  up  to  the  spirit  as  well  as  the  let- 
ter of  their  obligations,  and  that  in 
exercising  their  powers  within  the  Mu- 
nicipality lliey  shall  do  so  with  the 
least  possible  inconvenience  to  the  citi- 
zens. If  the  City  has  not  at  present 
Jurlmlletlon  to  <20iTii>tl  the  corporations 
to  adopt  such  a  policy  I  shall  endeavor 
to  secure  the  necessary  autliorlty  from 
the    I..eglKlature. 

I  shall  strenuously  oppose  the  month- 
ly Increase  for  the  business  and  other 
telephones  proposed  by  the  B.  i".  'I'ele- 
phone    Company. 

The  enormous  increase  in  the  cost  of 
living  brought  about  in  recent  years 
compels  the  serious  consideration  6f 
the  claiins  of  tlie  wage  earner  and  the 
fiaiaries  of  civic  ofTlciais.  If  elected 
I  shall  undertake  to  deal  aympatheti- 
cally  and  liberally  with  such  demands 
and  urge  upon  the  Cotmcil  the  same 
liberality    of    spirit. 

In  all  cases  where  the  ratepayers' 
will  has  been  made  known  /wirough  a 
referendum.  I  will  accept  tTTT=~  verdict 
as  flnal  and  will  loj-ally  endeavor  to 
comply  "W'ith  the  people's  mandate  as 
thus  expressed.  1  sny  this  with  spe- 
cial reference  to  the  introduction  of 
nn  additional  water  supply  from  Kooke 
Littke.  I  will  exert  every  effort  to  se- 
cure from  the  Provincial  Government, 
on  the  best  terms  possible,  a  portion  of 
the  Songliees  Reserve,  for  a  Public 
Park  in  Victoria  \\'est,  which  is  so 
greatly   needed. 

I  shall  support  and  energcticalb 
push  forward  all  neccs!?flry  paving  and 
sidewalk  work,  as  well  as  the  exten- 
sion of  our  sewer  and  water  systems, 
all  of  whicli  must  keep  pace  with  tlic 
rapid  growth  of  tlie  City.  The  obliga- 
tions entered  Into  regarding  certain 
funds  from  Mr.  Carnegie  in  aid  of  our 
Public  Ijibrary  must  be  sacredly  e.Tr- 
rlcd  out  and  an  amount  expended  year- 
ly for  the  support  of  that  instltuthvi 
to  maintain  Its  efficiency  up  to  <i 
standard  whlcli  is  reasonable  tor  .t  city 
of    this    size. 

As  the  School  Bonr.l  is  an  eiitirel>- 
independent  liody,  I'lected  by  and  di- 
reclly  responsible  to  the  i)Oople,  I  shall 
not  atteinpt  to  exercise  any  guardlan- 
sliij)  or  fatherly  care  o\er  thnt  bfid\\ 
but 'Will  endeavor  to  work  In  hariiion.v 
with  the  member«  of  the  bounl,  co- 
operating with  and  assisting  them  In 
every  possible  wa>-  in  their  rffort.s  to 
.•supply  ■  the  o<lucational  necessities  of 
our  rapidly  growing  cMy.  I  was  a 
member  of  tlie  energetic  commlllec 
which  t;»orked  to  place  the  new  High 
School  In  the  I'erinvood  JJIstrlct,  and 
[  hope  thm  ell  in,\-  friends  will  give 
tile  Iligli  School  by-law  their  loyal 
support.  The  proposed  Inilldliig  mriy 
seem  at  (irst  glance  to  be  a  little  ahe«d 
of  the  lime,  but  It  must  be  remembered 
that  wo  are  building  for  the_  future, 
and  that  when  completcrl  tlie  proposed 
buikling,  besides  ser\iiig  Its  iiurpose, 
«lll  l)e  a  source  of  pride  to  our  citi- 
zens   and   nn    ornamenl    to    the    I'ity. 

if  dected,  I  shall  eiideavor  to  wovh 
Inrmoniously  with  the  Board  of  Trade, 
I'le  Tslfind  r>evelopnient  Association, 
the  Trades  and  l^ibor  Council  and  all 
other  hodles  strhing  to  pronlote  the 
malerftll    prosperity    of    Victoria. 

I  shall  he  .•••.atlsfled  to  fill  one  olTlci; 
only,  that  of  the  Mayor.  «nu  by  placing 
a  proper  ilegree  of  rcspon."=niillt.y  on  the 
shoulders  of  each  Alderman.  I  belie\'e 
ther«  will  be  no  fll(n<Milty  in  having 
the  machinery  of  our  ci\  ic  government 
run  smoothly. 

In  entering  upon  a  conte.«it  for  this 
liigh  and  responsible  position  f  liflve  no 
personal  ends  to  .serve;  In  fact,  I 
should  shrink  from  the  responslhlllty 
were  It  not  that  It  has  hern  repre- 
sented to  me  by  many  of  my  fellow 
citizens  tTiat  it  Is  my  duty  to  place  my 
aervlces  at  your  comiiiand  and  my  sin- 
cere desire  to  do  the  best  I  can  In 
every  position  in  life  to  which  I  have 
been  called  to  act.  Jt  ilk  in  this  spirit 
that  I  ask  for  the  Bupport.  of  my  fel-

the  world)  for  forcing  the  concrete  back  from  the  forms  and  allow- 
ing the  thin  mi.x  to  run  out  against  the  forms.  It  is  the  only  spade, 
that  will  not  clog  up  and  become  unfit  for  use  if  neglected.  For

AngTieta  Cottlow — On  thq  third  of 
next  month  a  Virtoria  audience  will 
1-ave  an  opportunity  of  hearing  a  v,o. 
man  pianist  who  Is  ranked  among  the 
very  first  of  her  sex  in  the  art.  Miss 
.W.gupta  Cottlow,  a  native  of  this  con- 
tinent. Is  given  credit  for  being  the 
grentest  living  cxiionent  of  the  works 
of  Edward  Maci;>owell  as  well  a-s  one  of 
the  most  authoritative  "players  of  the 
master  compositions  of  the  clas.slcal 
and  modern  schools.  Miss  Cottlow  is 
being  brought  here  under  the  direction 
of  Mr.  George  II.  Suckling  of  this  city, 
and  her  concert  will  be  given  in  Alex- 
andra hall.  In  referring  to  her  wo>-k, 
thr  London  Tlmef;  remarked  during  her 
European  tour:  "The  playing  of  Miss 
(."■(■■ttiow  is  remarkable,  not  for  Its  lech- 
nical  finish  only,  but  for  the  amount  of 
s>-nipathy  with  very  different  types  of 
music  wlilch  the  pinnlsl  showed."  The 
Morning  Post  said:  ".Miss  Cottlow's 
playing  Is  remarkable  for  Its  fluency 
and  accuracy."  The  Sluskal  Standard's 
critic  wrote:  "Miss  Cottlow  has  a,  fine 
touch  and  exhibits  a  masterly  commnnd 
of  the  keyboard.  Hhe  also  poss'^sscs 
sterling  technical  and  interpretative  ac- 
compllslirnents;  she  is  undoubtedly  a 
fine   pianist."

splendid  fid*  for  investnaent.  If  you  have  decided  to  buy  or 
build  this  ye^r  you  should  secure  your  lot  at  once.  Good  lots 
■  are  cheaper  and  not  so  scarce  as  they  will  be  in  the  Spring;-

Kveryone   will  concede   the  desirability 
of    obtaining   an    ample    water   supply, 
most  people  are  willing  to  pay  any  rea- 
sonable figure  for  thi.s  desideratum,  and 
a  small  proportion  regard   it  as  essen- 
tial at  any  price.    It  therefore  becomes 
necessary    to    form  ■  a   dotinite    idea    of 
what    this    amount    will    be   in    192!*.      1

It  will  be  granted  that  the  per  capita

tion of  40,000  persons,  a  five  and  a  half

of  new  cities  as  regards  the  provision 
of  public  utilities  after  these  cities  have 
once  commenced  to  grow?  Before  t\\". 
work  is  finished  the  demand  is  already 
greater  than  the  supply.  The  absence 
of  foresight  can  only  be  put  down  to  n 
want  of  appreciation  as  to  how  quickly 
a  geometric  series  totals  after  it  has

disclaims  any  wish  to  appear  as  .a

decisions  affecting  the  physical  and  ma.

estimate  would  therefore  be  as  follows: 
135,000  population  in  1829  at  a  pci 
capita  consumption  of  140  gallons  per 
day  would  make  our  requirements  19,-

the    Bervlces    of    an    expert    In    getting 
entrance  to  th(>  safe  in   which  a   stnall 


Two  iinsucfessful  atleiiipls  at  safe-

wouUl-be  roUbera  aucceedeU  in  securing 
entran<je  to  Che  8afcs^,,have  been  re-

both  cases  the  woilk  of  the  rol)l)ers'weVB-

their  efforts  disturlied,  and  they  ninde

uuiecLIves  liave   iiau   lo    woiK    upuii. 

The  attempts  were  made  upon  Ihu 
safe  of  tlie  Burridf^e  Mercantile  t'om- 
pany,  corner  of  King's  road  and  Doug- 
las street,  the  premises  formerly  occu- 
pied by  Johns  Bros.,  grocer.'<,  and  on  the

through  a  side  window  overlooking

in  cr  or  early  Monday  niornJnff.  "the  at- 
tempt was  not  discovered  until  Monday 
morning  about  ten  o'clock,  when  some

hi  -lion  window  drew  their  attention 
and  an  Investigation  followed.  The 
n  hbers  'had  first  used  a  Ijeavy  h«w>- 
111.  r  to  break  the  knob  from  oft  the 
door  of  the  safe. "aft'a""a""Moleva3  drlll- 
rd  into  the  'Comblnatioii.  The  crack 
nioiig  the  edge  of  the  safe  door  haa 
been  stuffed  with  soap  after  the  ex- 
plosive had  been  inserted  and  a  dyna- 
mite cap  and  a  piece  of  fuse  lying 
nearby  indicated  the  method  by  which 
liic  charge  had  been  fired.  But  the 
door  held  fast,  and  apparently'  the 
lobbers.  afraid  to  remain  about  the 
premises  after  tiring  the  shot,  had 
levanted  without  making  any  other 
:iiteni|>t  t(.  j>ret  Into  the  safe.  It  was 
iK-ces.-^ary    for   the   company  to   secure 


amrmnr  or — T.,npA' -a«d-htTTr  dgposHt^- 
on    Saturday   night. 

The  jecohd  attempt  at  safe  crack- 
ing, apparently  carried  out  by  the 
»aine  Individuals  who  operateil  at  the 
premises  of  the  Uurridgc  Mercantile 
Compan.\',  was  made  '>n  the  snfe  ot 
the  St«ndHrd  rj*un(lrv  Ciimpanv  some- 
time on  .Monday  eveniiiK:  or  early  Tues- 
day morning.  The  same  procedure 
was  followed  in  this  case  also,  but  the 
explosive  failed  to  do  the  work  expect- 
ed of  It.  A  bottle  of  liquid,  believed  to 
have  been  nitro-glycerlno,  was  found 
lying  by  the  safe.  I'^ntrance  to  the  of- 
fice was  secured  through  a  rear  door. 
The  safe  had  been  carefully  plugged 
with  soap  after  the  charge  had  been 
inserted.  In  this  case  the  robbers, 
even  had  they  succeeded  In  breaking 
open  the  stife,  would  have  secured  no- 
thing, a.'3  no  nuiney  or  valuables  had 
been    left   therein. 

The  police,  while  maintaining  silence 
regarding  the  two  attempts,  have  been 
keeping  a  sharp  look  out  for  suspici- 
ous characters,  but  owing  to  the  fact 
that  the  attempts  were  made  on  holi- 
days and  the  perpetrators  had  plenty 
of  opportunity  to  get  clear  away,  their 
capture  Is  problematical.  The  Indica- 
tions point  to  the  attemps  having  been 
made  by ,  men  Inexperienced  In  that 
particular  class  of  robbery. .  Many 
cases  of  safe  breaking  have  been  re- 
portedi  from  the  Mainland,  where  the 
police  are  keeping  close  waicii,  and  tHo 
local  police  heads  believe  some  of  these 
croQks  h»ve  inljgrat*4.  to  Victoria  in 
the  hope  that  durtasr  the  holidays  a 
successful  attempt  could  be  made. 

A  peculiar  feature  of  these  cases  Is 
that  exactly  six  jrears  Ago  to  a  day 
the  same  premiseNB  occupied  by  the 
Duwi^e  WiiaaitHo  Company ■.  '(th«a- 
Johns  Bros)  iM«  entered  and  in  at- 
tempt made  to  blow  the  nafd  whtob 
was  badly  wree*ed.  The  robbers,  who 
hid  behind  a  lumber  pile  across  Doug- 
las street,  became  alarmed  at  the  ap- 
proach of  pedestrians  and  bolted  from 
the  place  without  endeavoring  to  as- 
certain the  amount  of  damage  dftne  by 
their  charge.

the  most  colossal  bargain  disbursement  yet  attempted  here,  and  that  means  anywhere.  Merchandise  slaughtered 
to  the  merest  nothing.  We  have  performed  what  seems  to  some  ordinary  merchants  a  miracle,  the  turning  of 
this  great  up-to-date  stock  into  cash.  But  the  age  of  miracles  is  past.  The  secret  of  disposing  of  $:i"),(KK),  the  value 
this  stock  was  in  money,  is  this:  The  fearful,  sensational  and  entirely  disregarding  of  former  prices.

in  a  very  dangerous  condition,  her  hull 
being  almost  caught  twice  in  the

a.bout  eighty  feet  high.  At  one  time

deck  fittings  were  washed  away  or 
damaged,  while  tho  dining  room  and

EVKRl'.TT,  Jan  3. — Tiic  barkcntinc 
Kcko  Head  was  the  scone  of  a  mutiny 
when  bound  for  this  port  from  the 
Hr.waiian  l.sland.  according  to  the  story 
of  First  Mate  AVeybus.  The  mate  saya 
every  man  but  one  refused  duty  at  the 
pumps  during  a  storm  when  the  hold 
^va.s  full  of  water  and  the  ship  In  dan- 
ger of  sinking.  Captain  Larson  ordered 
tlie  crew  to  the  pumps.  The  men  rc- 
fiiBCd  until  tho  mate  went  below  with 
a  revolver  and  threatenort"  to  kill  any 
iiinn    who    would    not   go   on   deck. 

'I  he  storm  hau  iieen  raging  several 
doys  and  heavy  .seas  broke  high  over 
the  barkentlne,  wlilch  rapidl.\-  was  fil- 
ling. When  the  puinp.«;  were  abandoned 
the  vessel  failed  to  ride  the  swells  and 
for  !\  time  It  was  fearetl  that  she  would 
swiimp.  When  ordered  to  the  pumps 
only  one  man,  Owens  by  name,  started 
t..    go   on    deck. 

"I'll  shoot  the  fir.st  man  who  refuses 
to  go  on  d»ck."  roared  the  mate  to  tlie 
others.  As  a  rewai-d  to  Owens  he  was 
allowed  to  stand  with  tlic  mate  by  llir- 
ir.ast  and  watch  the  other  men  work. 
The  pumps  were  manned  and  when  freed 
of  water  the  Koko  Head  safely  rode 
through    the  storm. 

The  men  then  begged,  the  mate  as- 
serts, that  the.v  be  not  i-eported  lest  they 
he  punished  for  mutiny.  They  were  al- 
lowed their  petition  and  tlie  story  rc- 
miilned  untold  until  the  barkciillne  had 
lied  up  at  the  Great  Northern  docks  at 
this  port  and  the  crew  discharged.  The 
Koko  Head  takes  a  new  crow  on  each 
\oy3gc.  On  the  trip  Just  finished  'he 
faithful  Owens  only  was  retained.  With 
the  captain,  mate  and  carpenter  he  will 
make  the  next  outward  voyage.  The 
Koko  Head  will  pick  up  a  new  crew 
ir  Renttlc,  after  loading  1.700,000  feet 
or    lumber   for   Australia.

Plans   aro    being  prepared   for    tho    In- 
Ip.nd  Navigation  company  of  Seattle  for 
tlu,    constrtictlon    of    two    steel    steamers 
to    be    built    In    .Seattle,    which.      It       is 
claimed,    will    make    22    knotij    an    hour. 
The      Seattle      Post      Intelligencer   saj«: 
"An    official    of   the   Inland      Navigation 
company,    who    has    Just    returned    from 
New   York   City,   said   .N'cstefday   that   he 
had    visited   a    number  of   Eastern   i^hlp- 
bultdlng    companies    and    bad    dlscnssed 
with   them   the  building  of   two  25-mlle- 
an-hour  steamers   for  Pugct  Sound,   but 
tliat   it    had    now    been    decided    to   bulUi 
them    In    Seattle.      He     also     said      that 
naval    architects    have    been      preparing 
plans    for    the    vessels,     which    will    be 
the    finest    addition    ever    made    at    one 
time  to  Pugct  Sound's  fleet  of  steamers. 
The  eonstvucllon  of  tho  alisteel  steam- 
er SOI  t>uc  Is  tn  furtherance  of  the  plans 
*f    the    allied    companies    to    operate    a 
fleet   Of   atridly    nioilern    vosisols.     The 
new  vessel  will  haVe  a  speed  of  14  1-2 
:kn<^ts  nn  hour,  whyet^the  other  steamers 
planned  will  l»«  of  much  greatsr  speed 
thisn  any  operated  betwven  Puget  Sound 
porta.  " 


Making  the  sixth  extra  vessel  thai 
DoUwell  &  company  have  chartered  in 
addition  to  tlie  regular  Blue  Funnel 
liners  to  handle  the  excessive  amount 
of  freight  offering  in  the  Oiiental  trade,, 
the  steamship  Cape  Breton  has  been 
fixed  to  load  for  Yokohama  and  f.'hin- 
esc  ports  and  is  expected  to  arrive 
here    towards   the   end   of   the   month   . 

The  Cape  Breton  has  been  In  theso 
waters  before  and  is  pretty  well  knowi* 
here.  .She  was  built  in  1904,  is  3Gfl  fee 
long,  has  a  beam  of  43  feet  and  a  dcpl  * 
of  IT..";  feet,  with  a  net  tonnage  of  2501. 
The  vessel  will  load  cotton  and  general 
cnrgo  here  and  on  the  Sound,  and  will 
probably  finish  up  with  a  deck  load  of 
lumber    at    this    port. 

Ihe  Cape  Breton  should  have  arrived 
r.t  Otnru,  Japan,  long  before  thi.s  from 
Shanghai,  but  what  the  vessel  is  bring-

Yoti  Need  A  Tonic 

Mr.  Business  or  Professional  Man  I 

Excessive   and    constant  mental   occupation,   protracted 
anxiety  or  care,  continual  work  in  the  stuffy  atmosphere  of  the 
office,   causes    rapid    lo.ss    of    nervous   power,   mental   Rloom   and   depression. 
YOU  need  a  tonic  ana  the  very  best  preparation  to  be  bad  on  this  market  is 


m^Dtmiimifit  pttf 


(A  la  Quina  du  Perou) 

It  will  promptly  relieve  prostration,    nervousness    and     debility,   renew 
energy,  vigour  and  activity— it  is  the  first  and  simplest  preparation  to  tone  up  the 

entire  system.  ,  .  .  j         ., 

In  sickness  or  health,  in.  business  or  pleasure,  m  prosperity  oradversily, 
the  benefit  of  WiLson's  Invalids'  Tort  is  beyond  comprehension,  until 
you  have  actually  experienced  the  glowing  invigoration  it  generates. 

Dr.  J.  DUNKIEIvD,  Pctrolia,  Ont.,  says  : 

"I  have  used  "WiLson's  Invalids'  Port"  and  have  pleasure  in 
recommending  it  a.i  a  tonic  of  rare  quality  for  debilitated  patients, 
n  gives  tone  to  the  sloinach  bv  increasing  the  appetite  and  very 
greatly  assistiuR:  digestion.  1  believe  that  it  would  alone  cure 
many  ca.^es  of  "ruu-down"  constitutions  unaided  by  any  other 
medicine."

Belting 

"Amphibia"   Waterproof  Leather  Belt,  manufactured 

by  Sadler  &  Haworth  in  single  and  double 

ply;  also  "Climax" 

"AMPHIBIA"  PLANER.  .Since  wc  placed  this 
Belt  on  the  market  about  two  years  ago,  we  have  had 
more  favorable  comments  on  it  than  on  any  other 
one  that  we  have  ever  made. 

.\  Planer  requires  a  Belt  that  is  made  specially  for 
the  work. 

Where  green  lumljer  is  worked  or  wdiere  the  Belt 
is  liable  to  get  wet  in  any  way,  it  must  be  Waterproof. 

"AMPHIBIA"  Blancr  meets  all  these  require- 
mont'i. 

One  customer  who  has  tried  it,  says  that  it  lasts  five 
times  as  long  as  any  other  Belt  he  has  ever  used. 

It    is    made    in    two    weight-,    Heavy    Single    and 

Double. 

"CLIMAX"  is  our  best  Belt  and  i.s  made  for  all 
kinds  of  heavy  work.  The  stock  in  it  is  specially  'se- 
lected for  weight  and  quality.  It  will  always  be  found 
"just  a  little  bit  better  than  seems  necessary."

Actual  Brake  Test 


i:.'\ril  W  AiTCRLOO  boy  Gasoline  Engine  is  .submitted  to  an  actual  brake  test  to  see  that 
the  engine, will  develop  the  horse  power  as  rated.  This  test  is  prolonged  to  discover  any  defective 
material  or  workmanship  in  the  engine.  A  record  of  the  test  can  be  furnished  .so  that  each  cus- 
tomer may  know  the  actual  brake  test  of  the  engine  he  buys. 

We  also  test  our  engine  in  reference  to  fuel  consumption.  Each  engine  is  sent  out  adjusted  .so 
that  it  is  readv  to  run  when  uncratcd.     ^Ve  use  great  thoroughness  and  care  in  testing  our  engines 


THE  MIXER  produces  a  perfect  mixture  oi 
gasoline  and  air,  gives  the  greatest  power 
from  the  least  gasoline.  The  suction  of  the 
piston  draws  the  charge  of  gasoline  mixed 
with  air,  into  the  cylinder.  IT  WORKS 
BETTER  Tn.\N  ANY  PUMP  EVER 
T\IADE. 

THE  C/JVEK.\"OK  is  tlie  centrifugal  type, 
driven  by  gears  positive  in  action,  extremely 
sensitive,  controls  perfectly  the  speed  of  en- 
gine, regulates  fuel  supply  to  closest  point 
of  economy,  saves  batteries,  igniter  and  fuel. 
The  parts  are  few,  simple  and  interchange- 
able. Can  always  be  dependctl  upon.  Our 
Efovernor  is   our  great   ECOMOMIZER. 


I      THE  OPEX  JACKET  requires  only     fro 
I  two  to  three  gallons  of  water  per  horse  pow( 


from 
er. 
Old  style  from  20  to  30  gallons.  It  is  very 
compact,  enables  you  to  make  the  engine  frost 
proof  by  using  oil  in  hopper  and  greatly  saves 
fuel.  Xo  system  of  cooling  a  gasoline  engine 
is  as  satisfactory  as  the  open  jacket. 

THE  SPEED  LEVER  works  on  the 
same  principle  as  a  thrtjtlle  uu  a  loconiOiive, 
by  moving  the  speed  lever  you  can  increase  ar 
decrease  speed  of  the  engine  from  50  to  75 
revolutions!  This  can  be  done  while  the  en- 
gine is  running.  It  works  in  close  conjunc- 
tion with  the  governor  in  saving  the  fuel.  Wc 
count  our  speed  lever  one  of  the  SPECIAL 
and  most  valuable  features  of  our  engines. 


THE  IGXITER  is  the  make  and  brcaK  style,  special  composition  points,  trip  and  hammer  case 
hardened,  easily  taken  apart,  caimot  be  put  together  wrong.  .Parts  interchangeable.  Uses  bat- 
teries only  when  gas  is  readv  to  be  ignited.  ^

What— tifter    all— has    Jtosteritjr    ev«r 

done   for   us? 

But    there    I.-?    r  o    doubt   that    we    live 

In   troublous   times—times  trying  to  the 
nerves. 

The  reference  is  not  to  wars  or  rum- 
nis  of  wars — to  the  heathen  furiously 
raging  together,  or  to  parliamentarians 
and  politicians  imnglning  vain  things: 
All  these  woes,  even  the  latter,  are 
transient. 

The  -c'll  'rouble  Is  in  the  very  con- 
(HLlon,-  of  itiodern  life.  We  do  not  In- 
iL-ud.  however,  to  coinmence  a  diatribe 
against  the  modern  hunger  for  luxury 
—the  modern  cult  for  plea.sure.  Perhaps.

lurry    of    pleasure,   as    in    the    hurry    of 
business. 

Within  the  la.'tt  century  .still  mon- 
wiLliiii  the  last  half-century,  the  pro- 
K-resH  of  mechanical  Invention  has  been 
HO  great  that  every  kind  of  work  from 
the  housemaia'.«i  lo  the  Premier's  be- 
comes  vastly   easier   to   do. 

\a:ily  easier,  and  yet  vastly  harder! 
V.c  are  each  of  us  from  the  humblest 
to  the  highest  provided  with  appliances 
which  save  us  a  huge  amount  of  com- 
monplace, humdrum  work.  The  mechani- 
cal part  of  our  work  is  done  by  ma- 
chinery. You  touch  a  switch — you  talk 
into  a  telephone — you  cover  twemty 
miles  as  quickly  as  you  could  six. 

But  "unto  whom  much  is  given,  of 
them,  much  is  required."  Tt  the  details 
have  been  abolished  we  have  all  the 
more  to  do.  W^e  are  all  of  us — without 
exception — expected  to  do  more,  and  to 
do  it  better.  ■ 

Life  has  become  more  comfortnblo — 
and  yet  much  harder — so  more  wearing 
on  the  nerves.  In  these  days  one  has

^        '^  m  you  get  it  at  Bhmlcy's,  it's  all  nght 


Mr.  Raymur  brings  forward  as  his 
prize  argument  the  statement  that,  if 
the  City  buys  water  from  the  Esqui- 
mait  Waterwutks  Company,  at  the  end 
of  ten   years  the  City  will  have  paid 
$500,000  to  the  Company  and  will  have 
nothing  to  show  for  it  in  the  way  of  a 
municipal    waterworks  system.       You 
read  it  and  say:  "How  wonderful.       1 
never  thought  of  that  before."        But 
when  you  stop  to  analyze  it.  you  will 
never  think  of  it  again.     It  is  an  un- 
truth by  indirection.     He  want.s  you  to 
think  that  the  money  cost  of  bringing 
water  through  the  Sooke  Lake  system 
will  help  to  p^y  for  the  system.       It 
won't.       Water  costs  money,  just  the 
same  as  flour,  water  or  .sugar.       The 
money  to  build  the  Sooke  Lake  .system 
v.ill  have  to  be  raised  by  a  two  million 
dollar  mortgage  on  the  City.       Then 
when   you   have   borrowed  and   spent 
tiiat    money,   you    will    begin    to   pa.v; 
money  for  bringing  water  through  the 
svstem   tnto  the  city.     Thfe  is  where 
you  get  at  the  actual  cost  of  water.  We 
show  in  our  first  advertisement  by  ab- 
solutely correct   figures  that  the  co?t 
per  year  of  water  through  the  Sooke 
Lake  system  will  be  $119,000,  not  one 
dollar  of  which  goes  towards  payment 
for  the  system.    You  get  nothing  for  it 
but  water.    In  ten  ycai-s  you  will  have 
paid  Si.K^.ooo  for  nothing     but     the 
same  water  you  can  buy  from  the  Es- 
quimalt     Waterworks     Company     for 
$500,000.     By  buying  the  water  from 
the  Company  vou  will  in  ten  years  save 
$690,000  on  the  actual  cost  of  the  water 
supply,  and  also  save  the  taxes  neces- 


sary to  make  up  a  Sinking  Fund  of  be- 
tween $40,000  and  $50,000  per  year,  a 
total  saving  of  over  $100,000  per  year 
for  ten  years. 

To  illustrate  our  explanation  we  will 
assume  that  ,in  addition  to  keeping  Mr. 
Raymur  on  as  Water  Commissioner, 
you  elevate  him  to  the  position  of  Coal 
Commissioner.  Coal  can  be  purchased 
in  the  open  market  for  $7.50  per  ton. 
If  your  Coal  Commissioner  comes  out 
with  a  proposal  to  mortgage  the  City 
and  buy  a  municipal  coal  mine,  from 
which  the  coal  would  cost  $15.00  per 
ton,  you  will  know  he  is  crazy. 

Then  come  back  to  the  Sooke  Lake 
project — 

Mortgage  on  City $2,000,000 

Co.st  of  water  for  ten  years. .    1,190,000 
Cost  of  Sinking  Fund  for  ten 

years  at  least •      40O-OOO 

'^^^^^^  $3.590.000 

\11  tied  up  to  get  water  which  you  can 
buy  for  $50,000  per  year  without  any 
mortgage  on  the  City. 

Mr  Raymur  says  the  Sinking  Fund 
need  only  be  $13,500  P^r  ye^r.  He  is 
absolutely  wrong  in  this,  because  the 
Waterworks  System  will  not  last  fotv^^, 
ever.  The  life  of  a  riveted  steel  main 
is  never  estimated  to  exceed  26  years. 
The  life  of  a  concrete  main  laid  along 
the  ground  without  trenching  or  cov- 
ering is  problematical,  with  al!  the 
chances  against  it.     We  know  it  will 


take  at  least  .$400,000  in  ten  years,  and 
if  only  $13,500  per  year  is  provided  for, 
the  balance  will  be  taken  out  of  you  in 
one  lump  sum.  per  bylaw. 

Mr.  Raymur  says  $5000  per  year  will 
cover  the  co.st  of  operating  the  system 
between  Sooke  Lake  and  the  City 
limits.  This  amount  will  hardly  cover 
the  wages  and  supplies  of  necessary 
permanent  employees.  Our  estimatt* 
of  $24,000  per  year  is  absolutely  and 
honestly  conservative. 

Mr.  Raymur  says  a  contract  has 
been  signed  for  the  construction  of  the 
system  for  $1,196,000. 

He  is  entirely  wrong  in  this  because 
the  contract  has  not  been  signed,  no- 
bondsmen  or  security  being  forthcom- 
ing. 

Then  there  are  some  things  Mr.  Ray-. 
mur  has  not  told  us :  (a)  The  work  1» 
.subject  to  the  "Mechanics  Lien  Act, 
by  the  terms  of  the  specification,  so 
that,  if  the  contractor  goes  broke,  th« 
City  will  have  to  pay  all  the  bills,  nd 
matter  how  great. 

(b)  No  Surety  Company  will  giv«| 
bonds  for  the  fulfilment  of  the  contract, 

(c)  The  engineer  has  ascertained 
that  Sooke  Lake  water  must  be  filtered 
before  it  can  safely  be  used  for  drinle* 

'  ing  or  cooking,  so  that  the  expense  of  * 
huge  filtration  plant  must  be  anticipat- 
ed.   And  '• 

(d)  The  laying  of  an  unprotected  coi^ 
Crete  main  is  altogether  experimental. 
Nobody  knows  how  it  will  turn  out.

In  this  statement  no 
provision  is  made  for. 
ail}'  work  costing  more 
than  the  Engineer's  Es- 
timates. In  nearlv  cverv 
case  the  actual  cost  ex- 
ceeds the  estimate. 


T!" 


17-YEAR   BASIS 

The  fair  method  of  testing  a 
public  utility  sy.stem  from  the 
basis  of  cost  to  taxpayers  is  to 
provide  for  time  of  construction 
%ind  fifteen  years'  operation. 

The  Engineer  fixes '2  years  for 
CMiistruction,  and  adding  the  first 
15  years'  operation,  we  have  a 
period  of  17  years  affecting  pres- 
ent ratepayers. 

■  I '  III  li -^1  lllJlfl^iiil^$fpal>5ili^»»li^»» 


On  this  i7~Year  Basis,  multi- 
plying the  yearly  cost  of  $119,000 
by  1/,  we  have  $2,023,000  as  the 
amount  in  taxes  which  the  pres- 
ent  ratepayers  will  have  tO^J^ 


for  the  use  of  Sooke  Lake  Watef 


]")uring-  this  i7-}Tar  term  the 
city's  use  of  water  will  raise  from 
the  minimum  of  3,500,000  gal- 
lons per  day  to  a  maximum  of 
10,500,000  gallons  per  day;  giv- 
ing an  average  of  7,000,000  gal- 
lons per  day  fc)r  .the  i7-3-ear 
period. 


ftSSS-- 


Under  the  Sooke  Lake  project 
-the  present  ratepayers  will  have 
1.)  ])ay  for  double  the  (piantity  of 
water  which  can  by  any  possibil- 
ity be  used,  meaning  increased 
taxes  and  a  dead  loss. 


The  estimate  of  cost  prepared 
by  the  City's  Engineer  is  $1,700.- 
000  to  coiniiletc  ilic  Sooke  Lake 
system.  This  is  probably  an  un- 
derestimate, and  any  figures  pub- 
lished to  show  a  contract  at  a 
lower  figure  are  false.  The  con- 
tract is  being  made  on  a  piece- 
work basis,  anil  nut  for  a  lump 
sum. 


The  Engineer  has  definitelv 
decided  that  no  revenue  from 
])owcr  can  be  earned  with  the 
Sooke  I^akc  svstem.

As  against  the  Sooke  Lake  cost  of  not  less  than 
$iig,ooo  per  }-ear.  and  a  Sinking  Eund  cost  of  $40,- 
000  per  year,  the  Esquimalt  Waterworks  Company 
will  sell  to  the  City  ten  million  gallons  of  water  per 
(lav  for  a  ten-yrar  term  for  $50,000  per  year,  deliv- 
ei-ed  in  the  L'ity.  This  will  effect  a  saving  of  $!00,- 
000  per  \ear  to  the  Taxpayer  when  the  Sinking 
b'lind  is  taken  into  account. 

It  will  effect  a  saving  of  $80,000  per  }ear  over 
the  lowest  figures  claimed  on  behalf  of  the  Sooke 
Lake   s\  stem.

Es(|uimalt  W  a  t  e  r- 
works  Company  guaran- 
tees to  reduce  ta.xes 
$100,000  per  year  for  10 
vears. 


In  bn>'ing  water  from  the 
l\s(|iiimalt  Waterworks  Com- 
paiiw  liic  tax])ayers  have  three 
direct  advantages: 

(a  )  There  is  no  loss  of  interest 
on  money  during  years  ol  con^ 
.-traction  ; 

(b)  The  water  supply  is  with- 
in the  cilv  limits  now; 


Relieving  that  the  taxpaxcrs 
have  never  yet  understood  the 
enormous  increase  of  taxation  in- 
to which  they  arc  being  railroad- 
ed by  accepting  the  Sooke  Lake 
.scheme,  the  h'.squimalt  \\"ater- 
works  Company  is  publishing 
fehis  advertisement. 

The  figm^es  are  correct. 

We  invite  answer,  analysis  and 
criticism,  for  we  are  sure  that 
the  more  publicity  is  given,  the 
more  we  will  be  proved  lo  be 
ab.solutel}'  right. 


To  l)ring  water  from  Sooke 
Lake  will  subject  the  taxpayers 
to  the  following  losses: 

(a)  Loss  of  interest  during 
construction; 

(b)  Cost  of  operating  Elk 
Lake    system    during    construe;- 

lion; 

(c)  Annual  tax  loss  of  $100,- 
000,  at  the  least; 

(d)  Cost  of  difficulties  of  con- 
struction discoverable  only  by 
actual  work. 


We  ask  the  Taxpayers  of  Victoria  to  give  fair  and  impartial 
consideration  to  the  facts  above  set  forth.
